✨ About This Model
This low-relief design is perfect for sand casting, mold making, and easy-release 3D printing—a versatile piece for artisans, collectors, and hobbyists alike.

Elevate your 3D printing portfolio with this intricately detailed coin, designed for collectors, gifts, or as a standout showcase of bas-relief artistry.
Crafted entirely in MINTFORGED software, this design transforms 2D concepts into stunning, print-ready reliefs with unmatched precision.

🗝️ Key Specifications
Diameter: 38.15 mm

Thickness: 3 mm

Maximum Relief Depth: 0.55 mm

Software: Generated with MINTFORGED

🌟 Features & Highlights
Crisp Detail: The 0.55 mm relief captures fine features while ensuring reliable, clean prints.

Flat Back: Ideal for framing, embedding in displays, or mounting onto plaques.

Scalable Design:

Uniformly scale up to 150% (~57 mm diameter) or down to 50% (~19 mm diameter) while maintaining proportional relief.

For custom relief effects, adjust the Z-axis independently in your slicer for deeper or shallower bas-relief.

Universal Compatibility: Suitable for any FFF/FDM 3D printer with a minimum build area of 40 × 40 × 5 mm.

🔥 Why Choose This Model?
Unlock the power of MINTFORGED’s unique relief engine—each coin is a precise, artistic statement, ready for 3D printing.

Perfect for collectors, display pieces, gifts, or as a one-of-a-kind example of what detailed bas-relief can achieve.

Whether used for sand casting, mold making, or as a stand-alone 3D print, this design combines technical ease with artistic impact.

🪙 SINGLE-SIDED INSTRUCTIONS
🖨️ Settings & Manufacturing Instructions
Printer Compatibility
Any FFF/FDM printer with at least a 40 × 40 × 5 mm build volume.

Nozzle & Bed
Nozzle Diameter: 0.4 mm (or 0.25 mm for extra crisp details)

Bed Surface: Glass, PEI, or BuildTak with glue stick or blue tape for reliable adhesion

Filament Recommendations
PLA: Best for fine detail and easy printing

PETG: More durable, slightly glossy finish

ABS: For heat resistance (enclosure recommended)

Layer & Perimeter Settings
Layer Height: 0.1–0.15 mm to capture fine 0.55 mm relief

Perimeters (Walls): 3 shells for sharp edge definition

Infill & Speeds
Infill: 10–15% (gyroid or grid pattern) for strength + material savings

Print Speed: 30–50 mm/s (slower speeds yield crisper relief details)

Temperatures (Guide)
Material Nozzle °C Bed °C Notes
PLA 200–205 55 For most applications
PETG 235–240 70–75 Glossy, durable finish
ABS 240–250 90–100 (encl.) For heat resistance, enclosure recommended

Orientation & s
Lay flat on the build plate (relief facing up)

s: Not needed for basic round coin geometry

📏 Scaling Guidelines
This model is designed at:

Diameter: 38.15 mm

Thickness: 3 mm

Relief Height: 0.55 mm

When scaling uniformly in your slicer (X/Y/Z together), all dimensions, including relief height, will scale proportionally. For example, doubling the size (200% scale) will make the relief height 1.1 mm.

✅ Adjusting Relief Independently:
If you want to make the relief deeper or shallower without changing the coin’s diameter, adjust the Z-axis scale separately in your slicer. For instance:

150% Z-scale: Increases relief depth by 50%

100% X/Y, 200% Z: Doubles the relief without altering diameter

🛡️ Always preview your sliced model before printing to ensure it meets your needs.

🛠️ Post-Processing
Lightly sand edges and relief peaks with 400-grit sandpaper for a clean finish.

Apply primer or filler-primer to enhance fine details before painting.

For a metallic look: consider metal-leafing or metallic spray paint.
